The Heisman-winning Marcus Mariota is off to the Tennessee Titans. Eastern Washington QB transfer Vernon Adams can't officially join the team until Aug. 13.
Today, the Ducks lost another weapon.
From Aaron Fentress of CSNNW.com:
Oregon running back Thomas Tyner will miss the 2015 season after having successful shoulder surgery on Friday, according to his father, John Tyner.
The junior former five-star recruit out of Aloha High School rushed for 573 yards and five touchdowns last season as the primary backup to Royce Freeman.
Tyner, who started the national title game, was expected to compete for the starting job this season. His loss could force senior Byron Marshall to return to running back after spending most of last season at receiver.
Should make for an interesting season in Eugene.
